The migration of large communities from Reddit to Lemmy is like a world-renowned band performing an acoustic set in a library for 50 people. (self.fediverse)

The fanbase is still large, but the Lemmy community hasn't quite caught up yet, and now there is a transitional period where the audience is smaller.

Right now the process for me finding a new community is find the community, go to the search page in my browser, type in the community, search for it, wait for it to show up, and sub to it, restart my app. That sucks.

Everyone here by now knows how to find a community. Getting to that community fucking sucks.

You left out the 20% or so chance the subscribe button just doesn't work. Also the 30% chance you find a community with 1 active user and less than 5 posts total, none of which point to a functioning community with a slightly different name.
